 I have owned this car for 15 of the last 19 years.  It started out as a pristine low mileage IROC-Z 5.7L and was transformed into the beast she is today.  OK, where to start.

Exterior:
The car was completely disassembled around 10 years ago, shaved and smoothed out all emblems and logos.  Paint is a deep base coat black with about four coats of clear.  Paint shows very well but for a true show car i would say she needs a fresh coat as it is 10 years old now.  But dont get me wrong, it may not be perfect but its still a deep gloss, zero rust, awesome looking car that gets a ton of attention.  Shaved handles open with remotes and theres an emergency pop in the well just in case.  6" fiberglass cowl hood just clears all the goodies underneath.  Chrome 18" perfect rims by Stern performance are wrapped in 255/40 Toyo Proxes up front and 265/40 Mickey Thompson drag radials out back.  All lights and signals function as they should, except no fog lights for better air flow.  Limo tints all around.

Interior:
New black carpet front and back, new head liner and visors.  No rear seats, front Corbeau seats with 5 point harnesses.  6 point welded in roll cage with removeable side bars make it a ton easier to get in and out(drivers side door handle will not clear the side bar when it is installed).  Autometer gauges throughout and everything works as it should, all the way down to the speedo and fuel level.  Hurst pro shifter.  Power windows and hatch all function properly.  Factory fuel tank has welded in sump pickup and fills from inside hatch(fuel cap is hard to get open sometimes and needs a caress from a screwdriver, would suggest replacing but never got around to draining tank).  Pioneer stereo with Pheonix gold speaker front and rear and Q logic kick panels.  No A/C or heat, no surprise.

Engine and Drivetrain:
Motor is a built LS7 big block, all forged internals, studded, ported and polished Merlin heads with stud girdles, Holley carb, MSD igniton setup, Edelbrock nitrous plate sytem never used, purge in front of hood, jet hot coated hooker full length headers down to true dual exhaust out the back, Willwood brakes, pistons, and calipers all around, master cylinder works off the power steering pump pressure to make up for loss of vacuum, yes it still has power steering for ease of cruising, built TH400 reverse manual w/brake, 5000 stall convertor, line-lock, B&M deep pan, trans cooler, Moser 9" rear end, Detroit locker with 4:10 gears, 33 spline axles, racing shocks and struts, lowering springs, Spohn trans cradle with driveshaft loop, Spohn rear end drag link, willwood adjustable control arms and sway bar, Aeromotive A100 fuel pump and filters, aluminum racing radiator cars temp always around 160, digital trans temp gauge by shifter, I'm sure im missing a lot feel free to ask questions.

This car is a beast, drives straight and smooth, however due its extreme build is bein sold as-is.  This isnt your average garage build where they throw in a huge motor and run it to the track. This car has all its bases covered, wasnt hacked to pieces, gets a ton of looks, and is a blast to drive around the neighborhood and the car shows.  Shipping is solely the responsibility of the buyer, I will drive it on to a trailer and thats about it.  Let me know if you need more pics or specific pics.  Thanks for looking.

Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes

Wed, 31 Oct 2012

It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.

Super Bowl LVII car commercial roundup: Watch them all here

Mon, Feb 13 2023

Fewer automakers than usual spent money advertising during Super Bowl LVII. In total, there were only five traditional ad spots from three big OEMs. A number of car-adjacent ads aired during the Big Game, too, and we’ll bring you those ads in this roundup alongside the more obvious ones. WeÂ’ve compiled all of the automotive-related commercials for you here in this post so you donÂ’t have to go searching for them elsewhere. Read on below to see what aired as the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Philadelphia Eagles. Ram's Super Bowl spot offers a cure for 'Premature Electrification' This commercial revealed the new electric Ram Rev pickup, and itÂ’s themed like a prescription ad for an antidote to "Premature Electrification.” A concerned narrator in the Ram spot asks if you're afraid that going electric too soon will mean "you might not be able to last as long as you like," and there's a guy on a pier who's going to need some new equipment if he wants to catch fish. We're also told there are "options being designed to extend range in satisfying ways," so if this truck isn't right for you, you have choices. All the commercial's missing is a silly medical marketing name and six seconds of speed-reading gibberish about side effects like intestinal bleeding and death. Which are two more good things. Jeep 4xe Super Bowl commercial highlights modern version of 'Electric Boogie' JeepÂ’s “Electric Boogie” commercial follows the Wrangler 4xe and Grand Cherokee 4xe in a variety of simulated off-road situations. Though fun, the soundtrack is the real star of the show. The songÂ’s original artist, Marcia Griffiths, was joined by Grammy winner Shaggy, Jamila Falak, Amber Lee, and Moyann on the track. The modernized re-recording celebrates 40 years since GriffithsÂ’ original track, and Jeep says the track is available for streaming now. Kia returns to the Super Bowl with the tale of 'Binky Dad' This year, Kia follows the adventure of "Binky Dad" in his quest to fetch his daughter's lost pacifier, which naturally takes him over just about every bit of terrain you might encounter upon leaving the civilized confines of Southern California for the not-so-civilized mountains of ... probably also California. It features the refreshed 2023 Kia Telluride, which probably doesnÂ’t need much advertising to see these days, but Kia went for it with the strong three-row SUV anyway.

Refreshed 2014 Camaro confirmed for New York debut

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

We've already seen leaked specs and potential spy shots, but the refreshed 2014 Chevrolet Camaro will make its official debut at the New York Auto Show in a few weeks.
Besides a tweaked exterior and the possibility of a high-output LS7 under the hood, we really don't know much else about the 2014 Camaro, but here's hoping for an improved interior, too.
In addition to the refreshed Camaro, Chevrolet will also be showing off the recently introduced Chevrolet SS, making its debut on the auto show circuit, and we'll also get our first look at the C7 Corvette coupe and convertible side-by-side.
